City of Toronto Succeeds in Saving
Some Concerts Canceled by Livent

TORONTO -- The city of Toronto said it saved at least 22 out of 70 concerts canceled by theatrical producer Livent Inc., and may be able to save eight to 10 more.

Livent, based here, filed for court protection from creditors in the U.S. and Canada two weeks ago. Last week, it canceled its winter/spring program at the city-owned Ford Center for the Performing Arts and said ticketholders could not get refunds.
